I think they'd be nice, especially on a light coloured car :y

Pity they don't do them with the correct offset for the Omega, although that can be sorted :y

The stud diameter is correct, but how is easy it to get the offset to ET30? Whats required to do it?  and what are the potential problems by doing it? Any help is gratefully appreciated in advance :y  :y  :y  :y  :y

Am guessing a 12mm hubcentric spacer will be the cure, am I heading up the right lines? As it happens I have a set from when I had 19" snowflakes.....

I prefer the GM ones - "snowflakes" - to these, but even then, they don't float my boat.

I'm old. Alloys don't excite me. Never did though...

I Had snowflakes, but due to the weight of the omega, they crack like mad. Not saying these will be any better, but I'm just getting the feel for a wheel change at the minute....

They are really nice looking wheels. Would look great on a lowered car.
